Wow that's nice. I actually use the same settings as you in San Andreas. Frame rate is still pretty good too even though all your specs own mine... well except I have more and better ram.

My PC has a mouse, a key board, a monitor a Radion graphix card, GTA: SA (off course), and lots more games

........ I'm not even commenting on that.....


I am currently running an AMD Athlon 64-bit 3500+ with 1.5 GB of RAM, an nVidia GeForce 6100 video card with 256MB, and a 200GB Seagate HHD, and a DVD burner/player, but I don't know the speed((screw me, I can't find it)).


I should try running BF2 on my PC, but I'd prefer not to get trapped in another gaming addiction. -.-

[chris82]

Your PC should run it well. Just keep in mind that BF2 is more video card dependent than most games.

But...

If you have $10 and a PayPal account and truly WANT BF2, PM me.

[Spaz The Great]

My mom has lower specs than me, minus the fact that her HDD isn't partitioned, so she technically has more room, and it runs just fine. I just didn't know I had a 256MB card. See, I bought a pre-built Acer, and NONE of the specs are correct on it. NONE of them.... The description for it in the store said it had 128 MB graphics card, 512MB of RAM, and like 180GB HDD or something. WTF. It ends up having a 256 card, 1 GB of RAM((I added a 512 from my old PC)), and a 200GB HDD.

Crap aye, what happened to it? I have only had my new laptop since Late November/early December and I will have to format for Vista after only 3/4 months. Depends on whether they package that new tool that allows you to transfer all files/folders to your new system.

[Dmac]

Formatted a few Weeks ago, Installing MCE in a few weeks. Looks like i got to back my stuff up again.

How'd you get it back? Did you already have it backed up on DVD/CD? I had tons of stuff backed up before I got my new Laptop, lost it all though, for some unknown reason.

[Dmac]

I used a Recovery Disc.

I would've waited with getting Vista..

So if my parents are satisfied with my grades at school at the end of this school year I'll get permission and a budget of 1950 USD from them for a new PC and I'll add some money to that myself as well. So then it's going to be about 2350 USD.

-So then I'll have some cheap 19" wide screen from Samsung (had to cut money of something)
-a P5N32-E SLI mobo from Asus with nVidia's 680i chipset (but I'm probably going to drop SLI and just take another mobo)
-2 Gig RAM of OCZ Gold or something like that
-5.1 speakerset of Creative
-Scythe Infinity CPU cooler
-DVD/CD light scribe blabla
-card reader
-700 Watt GameXstream Psu OZC. But might take 850 instead
-E6700 CPU Intel. Almost certain that I'll get another one.
-8800 GTX by XFX overclocked and there's a slight chance that I will take a 8900.
-Seagate Barracuda 320 gig HDD. Will be upgraded to 1 TB soon though.

No Keyboard and mouse, I'll have to do with some crappy stuff with wires that I still have lying around. Just can't afford it yet. But I'll buy some withing the first 2 months.
OS: Vista Ultimate and XP emulated.

How could you get the misc stuff so cheap? A mouse usually costs at least 25 EUR
And a you can't get a monitor under 180 EUR.

And what do you mean with PC type?

[Not a Fanboy]

I have Vista and am so happy since I fixed my problem.

What happens is my Bluetooth is off by default and WLAN is on. This is USUALLY how I want it, but if I goto an airport I need to turn WLAN off, I dont use bluetooth YET.

The software would then allow me to change if Blu/WLAN is on or off, however it wasnt working so it would be stuckk!! ALso when I adjust my volume a think would come on the screen showing



that went away too. And it also mighta been why my internet cut out.

Reinstalling Windoze would fix but it would just come up. I pin pointed when it happended and ran system restore but that was f***ed too!!!

Just today I ubnistalled office 2007 which was an app I installed around the time the problems came, it said to complete unistall I need to reboot. I said so, but later I did and its workng now!!!

And what do you mean with PC type?

It is written ULTRA GAMES Pro on it, that`s the type from the magazine, bassically the PCs name, they have also ULTRA Graphics Vista, Ultrao Paladin etc.

Bought my PC from ULTRA Pro Computers so all PCs from there are ultra

The monitor is 4-5 years old and the cheapest mouse here is about 2 dollars also I think this mouse is more than 1-2 years-old ...

Here is a pic of my PC
